“We love him very much.”

It’s a boy!

Scarlett Johansson and SNL’s Colin Jost have welcomed their first child together.

The parents welcomed a baby boy into the world, Johansson’s rep confirmed to People.

Jost also confirmed the news on his Instagram by releasing a short statement.

“Ok ok, we had a baby. His name is Cosmo. We love him very much,” the new dad wrote.

The name Cosmo is of British/Italian descent. It means order, decency, and beauty.

This is Jost’s first child, but the Black Widow actress is already a mum to 6-year-old Rose Dorothy.

She shares her daughter with her ex-husband Romain Dauriac.

Reports about Johansson’s pregnancy started to circulate earlier this summer.

A source told Page Six last month: “Scarlett is actually due soon, I know she and Colin are thrilled. Scarlett is pregnant but has been keeping it very quiet. She has been keeping a very low profile.”

The Marriage Story actress married the SNL star in a private ceremony last October. The couple met in 2006 but didn’t become romantically involved until 2017.
